[00:01.81]Don't you know me Kansas city
[00:03.61]I'm the New Berlin wall
[00:05.41]Try and tear me down
[00:07.26]I was born on the other side
[00:09.07]Of a town ripped in two
[00:12.72]I made it over the great delight
[00:16.40]Now I'm comin' for you
[00:19.13]Enemies and adversaries
[00:22.75]They try and tear me down
[00:26.48]You want me baby, I dare you
[00:30.09]Try and tear me down
[00:33.71]I rose from off of the doctor's slab
[00:56.33]Like Lazarus from the pit
[01:00.02]Now everyone wants to take a stab
[01:03.64]And decorate me with blood graffiti and spit
[01:06.36]Enemies and adversaries
[01:10.03]They try and tear me down
[01:13.78]You want me baby, I dare you
[01:18.33]Try and tear me down
[01:20.13]On August 13th, 1961
[01:44.62]A wall was erected
[01:47.47]Down the middle of the city of Berlin
[01:48.37]The world was divided by a cold war
[01:51.08]And the Berlin wall
[01:52.88]Was the most hated symbol of that divide
[01:55.59]Reviled, graffitied, spit upon
[01:57.39]We thought the wall would stand forever
[02:01.19]And now that it's gone
[02:03.00]We don't know who we are anymore
[02:05.77]Ladies and gentlemen
[02:08.53]Hedwig is like that wall
[02:10.35]Standing before you in the divide
[02:13.05]Between east and west
[02:13.95]Slavery and freedom
[02:16.89]Man and woman, top and bottom
[02:20.50]And you can try and tear her down
[02:25.03]But before you do
[02:27.73]You must remember one thing
[02:29.55]Hey, there ain't much of a difference
[02:34.98]Between a bridge and a wall
[02:38.59]Without me right in the middle, babe
[02:42.20]You would be nothin' at all
[02:44.93]Enemies and adversaries
[02:47.61]They try and tear me down
[02:51.33]You want me baby, I dare you
[02:55.03]Try and tear me down
[02:58.77]Enemies and adversaries
[03:02.38]They try and tear me down
[03:05.09]You want me baby, I dare you
[03:08.70]Try and tear me down
[03:12.51]From east Berlin to junction city
[03:16.16]Hello New York hello Missouri
[03:19.76]What you try and tear me down?
[03:22.48]Come on and tear, come on and tear me down
